要旨 Brain development is a tremendously complex process in which a myriad
of neuronal and non-neuronal cell types is generated and assembled
into functional circuits in a highly organized manner. Many
psychiatric disorders arise when developmental processes are perturbed
by various genetic and environmental factors. Given high cellular
diversity in the brain, for most psychiatric disorders, we are still
far from understanding how they arise and what types of neurons and
circuits underlie functional impairments in psychiatric disorders.
Recent technological advance in single-cell analysis allowed us to
address how psychiatric risk factors perturb brain development at
single-cell resolution. In my presentation, I will show recently
published and unpublished data from my lab, where we implemented
single-cell analysis to identify how neuronal subtypes and their
networks are perturbed during brain development, followed up by
functional experiments to validate single-cell data.
